It looks like Sony is following the lead of Dell and Apple in launching programs to ensure that their products don’t end up in landfills after the short lifecycles that keep their businesses healthy.
Sony today announced intentions to begin a national recycling program for your various unwanted or unloved electronics, imaginatively called the “Sony Take Back Recycling Program,” which will begin on September 15th with 75 “eCycling” points around the country. The electronics manufacturer has partnered with Waste Management as part of the trash hauler’s “Recycle America” program, and says that it hopes to grow its drop-off locations to 150 by year’s end, with a spot in every state.
